I DIROTTA SU CUBA live concert porto Degli argonauti

Great event at the harbor of the Argonauts, DIROTTA SU CUBA in concert will be guests with their unique and unmistakable sound. They inaugurated in 1994 the most acid jazz and funk period that Italy has ever had: 30 years have passed since then and Dirotta su Cuba, amidst vicissitudes, separations, and lineup changes, are still active. To celebrate, the celebratory edition Gelosia 30 Bday will be released in vinyl format on Saturday on Warner Music for Record Store Day. From tomorrow, it will also be available on all digital stores. The digital version will also include the extended version not included on the vinyl.

"The success of Gelosia - says Simona Bencini, voice and soul of the group - came unexpectedly, it overwhelmed us, no one would ever have bet on the success of a genre little frequented in Italy like funk sung in Italian. And yet, thanks to the long wave of British acid jazz that paved the way for us, we became a fashion phenomenon, everyone wanted us everywhere! No one knew who we were, what our faces or our stories were like, we didn't have influential friendships or famous producers: it was the music that won, the radios went crazy for us and we became, today we would say, viral!".
